I have posted a question in this topic, but havent received many ideas, so I decided to add a photo to help with the description.

Any ideas would help:

"Basement has a patio door leading to the backyard. This creates a 7 Foot x 12 foot 'below ground level' porch. retaing wall is there (3 feet high) but the is also a sloping ground say, 45 degres.
In the need of ideas to make it look better"
